The 47-year-old print shop owner was charged at the Magistrate’s Court here under Section 186 of the Penal Code, which is punishable with jail up to two years, or a RM10,000 fine, or both. However, Koh’s lawyer N. Rajesh asked for a lower bail, saying his client has a wife, three children and two aged parents to support.The incident captured on video that has since gone viral took place on October 8, when Koh attempted to persuade MPSJ officials to not use force in attempting to catch a stray dog hiding under a car.

Due to a verbal misunderstanding where Koh tried to tell the officers, all of whom are Muslims, that Islam does not condone violence towards animals, he was then pinned against a vehicle and angrily told not to speak any further on the religion.

What a bloody waste of time and public money and resources. Can Malay Mail print the names and photos of the officer, his superior and their bosses so that the public can know who they are ;to be fair to the accused?

The one who charge is none other than AG office, they base on proof, not base on emotions. Of course in Malaysia baru they are not political tools.

This charge should be dropped. Don't waste taxpayers money. Instead, the officers should be charged for animal cruelty

Fight it all the way. MPSJ dog catchers must be compliant with etiquette and protocols etc etc. Most imp of all is they cannot be rude to tax payers ...

Prevention is better than cure
